Day by Day it gets better
Today I got to sleep in until about 9 again and instead of just one of our roommates being at work, two of them were. So, like yesterday I got to wake up late and play my music in the bathroom it was great! For awhile I was just sitting on my bed typing an e-mail to a good friend back home about restaurants for their upcoming visit to Disney! Then I texted my mom and asked if she had Skype set-up and she had a issue so I fixed it for her and she wanted to try it but I looked like I had just rolled out of bed, even though I'd been up for about two hours so I told her we could after I got a shower. So we tried it out and it worked! It was great to be able to see everyone back home. My finally roommate (In case you are wondering why I don't name any of my roommates it's because none of them know of this blog so I'm not sure they want there names out there so that's why) who we had met in line on the day of check-in, was still here and so last night I had told him I would probably go to the outlets because I needed "work appropriate" sneakers for work and I asked if he wanted to go and he was like that's sounds cool. So, this morning he asked if before we went if I could stop at a post office cause he wanted to send his girlfriend back home a gift. I said sure and he even offered me gas money but I didn't take it, it was only 15 minutes away! So, he got his gift sent. Then we went to the outlets, if you ever thought the parking was bad at the Galleria Mall, think of that mall around Christmas time and that's how the outlets are on the weekend (which I had forgot it was until we got there). It was so busy and because all the people who live in Florida are such crazy drivers, that really didn't help either, after circling the parking lot we ended up in the ramp on the third floor. I went to Reebok, got my sneakers and stopped at the Disney Outlet and that was it! I booked out of there! Crazy people!! After that we decided to head to Epcot, because the roommate I was with has only been to Disneyland cause he lives in California so he has never been to Epcot. So, we walked around Epcot, we immediately headed over to the countries because Disneyland doesn't have anything like that so we walked the countries, starting with Mexico, we rode the Gran Fiesta Tour with the Three Caballeros which I think it's a neat little ride! Then we went on to Norway and rode the Maelstrom which I was a little hesitant about because it says you go backwards and frontwards down a waterfall, but it was nothing! There is a fast trek downhill on Pirates of the Caribbean that I don't recall being there before and the ones on this ride were nothing compared to that! It was so much slower! Glad I conquered my fear of that ride, maybe I can ride roller coasters next (probably not). Anyway so we walked the rest of the countries China, African Outpost, Germany, Italy, The American Adventure, France, United Kingdom and Canada and then we walked around Futureworld at Epcot, we rode the Seas with Nemo and friends and we had decided to eat there. When we walked by United Kingdom the fish and chips and Yorkshire looked and smelled amazing! But we ended up back at La Cantina de San Angel in Mexico and ate there which I thought was pretty good, even a second time! After that we headed back and got back early tonight around 7ish and I got to skype with my mom again and made my room a little more homey (pictured below) I read everyone's card again and almost cried..again I miss you all! Tomorrow starts my training so I have to be up early.
